My Hero Academia: Blood and Fire
Growing Up: A New Home
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAfter spending a bit of time in the adoption building, finalizing the adoption of the two girls and making sure that it was all good in the eyes of the law, officially making them Celestia and Selene Midoriya, Hisashi and Inko lead the sisters and Izuku back to the car, as there was something else he had planned for the day. Inko found that the journey in the car was back in the direction of their house, where her husband made sure to carefully move through the city, even stopping once since he spotted a hero fighting a villain ahead of them. This was due to the fact that he didn't want to get involved, which was easy to do since a number of heroes were warding off the area to keep all of the civilians safe, though at the same time he, much like Izuku, had a habit of studying Quirks and those that were using them. Of course his reasons were for tracking down any and all potential allies to contact Kurogiri about, while at the same time Izuku was silently taking mental notes about what they were seeing, as he really liked Quirks, something Hisashi knew his son had inherited from him.
The family spent a bit of time observing the villain, who seemed to have a giant Quirk, being beaten by the hero on patrol, none of them could get a good look from where the car had stopped, before Hisashi got them underway once more, only to come to a stop at a house that was down the road from their apartment.
"I've been looking at other properties in my spare time, and when we both decided to adopt our lovely girls into the family I knew we'd need a new place to live." Hisashi explained, which was partly true, the latter part about the increase to his little family definitely required them moving to a new residence, while the lie was in him looking at properties in his spare time, but Inko seemed perfectly fine with that knowledge, causing him to focus on heading inside, "This was the first one that caught my eye, as it has four rooms, two bedrooms, a kitchen, and everything else we could possibly need, plus there's a small garage for us to put the car and your bicycle. I didn't want to go too far, since I know Izuku's friend Katsuki lives nearby and moving too far away would inconvenience everyone, plus it would make it hard for all of our kids to make friends."
As they walked into the house, and used the stairs to reach the upper level, Selene noted that the house was like what her new father had described to them, there was plenty of room for everyone and she could see where the master bedroom was located, along with the other three, one for each of them. She also noticed that the house seemed empty, which meant that it was definitely for sale and the current owners were letting prospective buyers envision themselves in this space, and she had to imagine that it worked quite well, especially with her brother and sister. Part of her still despised the fact that she was going to be living with Celestia and acting like they were loving sisters, but it was overshadowed by how innocent and kind the other girl was, in fact it wasn't long before Celestia grabbed her arm and beckoned for her to follow her and Izuku to one of the rooms. From what she could see there was more than enough room in the smaller rooms, as in she was sure that the normal bedrooms were more than enough for whatever the more mature people were called, where Selene told herself not to address anyone as 'foals' or the other equine related terms.
While she and her siblings did that, however, she could tell that their parents were discussing how they could afford such a place, though she was sure their father was going to mention something about a raise at work, or whatever lie he was going to make to ensure this was totally believable.
From what Selene gathered there would be a bed in each room, where their parents were planning on adding a desk as well, meaning it was easy for her to see that Inko was taking this seriously, that she was actually considering moving to this place, even though she did love her apartment, or at least she assumed so. She honestly didn't care which of the rooms was hers, but she could see that Izuku was interested in such a thing, while Celestia didn't seem to have a preference, each bedroom was identical in terms of size and space, so there was nothing for them to fight over. Another thing she determined was that their rooms were basically up to them on what was inside them, based on what she was hearing from their parents, though she had no idea what to put inside such a space, something that she might discover in due time. Izuku also asked Celestia about the items she might want inside her room and the other sister replied that she had no idea what to do in that regard, but right now it wasn't something they had to worry about since they weren't moving in right now.
After checking out the house Hisashi and Inko brought them outside and locked the door, since that was part of things, and returned to the car, where the siblings found that there were a number of other houses that Hisashi wanted to show them, but Celestia and Selene noticed that none of them seemed to match the first one.
Eventually they headed back to the apartment and Selene noticed that there really wasn't enough room for Izuku, herself, and Celestia, there were only two rooms in the entire space, which confirmed why Hisashi was so interested in purchasing a new place for all of them. Of course their parents went to talk about it in their room, since it was an important conversation for them to have, while Izuku showed his new sisters to his room, where they confirmed that he was definitely an All Might fan, he had a decent amount of figurines around them. In addition to that he had what appeared to be posters that were all from events that the hero had been too or had taken part in, and when Izuku showed them the computer the sisters found that there was a wallpaper of the hero on it, showing them his love for the buff hero. It was painfully clear that Izuku loved All Might far more than anyone else, none of the other heroes even came close based on what the sisters were seeing, and he also liked to play a video on the computer that showed the buff hero saving a bunch of people from a burning building with a smile on his face, his trademark Selene guessed.
"I can't wait for you two to learn more about heroes, so we can compare favorites and their Quirks." Izuku remarked, which was just further confirmation that he adored the people who put their lives on the line to save people and stop villains from causing havoc, before he stopped for a moment as he realized that all three of them were the same age, something that was followed by a smile appearing on his face, "Oh, I cannot wait until our Quirks manifest... I can only imagine what we might get, especially you two! I bet you guys will have awesome Quirks that will rival All Might's, or maybe Endeavor's."
"Oh, I wouldn't be too sure of that." Celestia replied, as she didn't share her new brother's thought that she would have a very strong Quirk whenever it manifested, which seemed to be soon since Izuku seemed to believe that it would happen in the near future, but it did make her wonder what sort of power she'd unlock.
Selene remained silent as she listened to that, because she had no idea how much of Celestia's power had been sealed by the magic that had brought them to this strange world, and that meant there was a chance her solar power could manifest at any given moment, which would be utterly disastrous in her eyes. Of course there was a chance that neither of them had their powers from their home world, as in neither of their magic would be available until they found a way back home, so it was possible that the only powers they might have access to would be the Quirks they might awaken. She honestly doubted she would have anything powerful, given that her nature was to play second fiddle to Celestia, but at the same time Selene guessed they would have to wait and see if they would manifest Quirks. This did cause her to realize how nice it was that Hisashi was All For One, because of his connections she realized it would be easy for him to find Quirks for them, but that was something to worry about in the future, since for now it was mostly them focusing on being a family.
As it turned out Inko, despite loving her apartment, agreed with Hisashi, they needed to move to a larger area to ensure that all of them had space and wouldn't be crapped up together, something that caused their father to arrange for the purchase of the first house they had seen, since that was the one they both wanted. What surprised the siblings was that when the next morning came around their parents told them that each of them would have their own rooms soon, because last night Izuku and Selene slept on two different sides of Izuku's bed while Celestia was given the couch. This was good news, since it meant none of them had to share a room, though it also meant that after breakfast Izuku and his sisters had to start packing up the All Might items that were in his bedroom, since there wasn't anything for Celestia or Selene to pack up. In addition to that Hisashi told all of them that they would make sure to get them new outfits and anything else they wanted, since it was wrong to let them have nothing, and Selene knew he was serious, he really loved his family and would do anything for them, of that she had no doubt.
After breakfast Hisashi and Inko used the car to get back to their new residence, allowing them to take the first of the items into the new house, though at the same time Inko pointed out the rooms for the siblings, since she knew that they had no idea who wanted which room, so the closest to the master bedroom was Selene's, the next was Izuku's, and then Celestia's at the end.
"This weekend we'll go shopping and get some of the essentials for your rooms, and come Monday we'll make sure to enroll you two with Izuku." Hisashi said, which would be a good thing for the girls, because forcing them to remain at home for a long time would only cause problems further down the line, so going with their brother and meeting other kids would help them form new bonds, and potentially even find a trigger that would reveal one or both of their Quirks, "There you'll be able to meet new kids and even make friends, even see some of the Quirks that others have manifested... maybe even see one of the kids awaken their Quirk for the first time."
"I know it'll be scary, but you don't have to worry, since there will be staff there to help you get adjusted to the new area, and all of the other kids." Inko added, as the preschool that Izuku went to was well respected and the staff members were good with kids, regardless if they had Quirks or not, though such a thing made her a little eager to see what sort of Quirks each of her children would manifest in the future, as she was sure all of them would manifest one at some point, "And don't worry, I'll be with you on the way to and from the preschool, so you won't have to be nervous about meeting new people or being overwhelmed by new sights... I'll be there to help you out."
Despite everything she had been through, before coming to this world, Selene found herself smiling with Izuku and Celestia, she really was eager to get a chance at a seemingly normal life with her siblings, instead of the anger and resentment that had given birth to her existence, and it only made her eager to see what the future had in store for them.
